That pic looks absolutely delicious. Not sure that I would take anything else - that is so pretty.

I sometimes take home canned zuke spears, and pickled green beans for a quick relish type plate and no time to do anything.

I absolutely have to have potato salad, baked beans, and chips to go with hot dogs or burgers though.

A quick baked bean recipe:

Saute onions in bacon grease, add pork and beans, brown sugar, hickory smoked BBQ sauce, and worchestireshire sauce in an iron skillet and stir till sugar is dissolved and beans are hot. Place Bacon on the top, and pop it in the oven, till bacon is done, and juice is thickened.

I never measure, just sort of dump stuff in and give it a taste.

I never measure except for baking. Dumping rules!

That reminded me of a GREAT sauerkraut recipe for topping hot dogs or bratwursts.

Fry a half pound of chopped bacon until crisp. Spoon out onto paper towels and reserve. In the bacon grease, saute sliced Spanish onions until golden - season with salt and some sugar. When onions are ready, add drained and rinsed sauerkraut, stir well and when hot, stir in the bacon. Serve on top of hot dogs or whatever. Yum!
